Service for Peace

I just went to the service for peace in Raleigh for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It was absolutely amazing. I had a lot of fun by the way, even though there was a little accident preparing the food. One thing at a time can and will make a difference, right? By doing service work, the selfish and greedy emotion or feelings just goes away and gives unselfish personality to oneself.

And yes, it was a volunteer thing and no money of course. But I helped with preparing the food and after that, I got to eat a whole bunch. It started at 12:00 and ended at 4:00. I ate breakfast at 8:00. So I was pretty hungry and since it was about that time, it included my lunch and dinner.

I was thinking of going to another service work on Monday but my sister have a denitist appointment and my mom said I couldn't go. I think it would've more fun than today because it was to plant trees and stuff. And I was also thinking of bringing my friends there to help. I would have been lots of fun!!

It's a four day weekend. I'm not going to make it a day off, it's a day on and a day of service!

I have been nothing at all. this week.
and i have nothing to share...
It feels so slow, but yet it feels fast.
I hope nothing goes wrong.
It's so hard to type when I'm listening to the song and singing at the same time.
oh~ oh. OH~ oh
that's what it said right now. I am seriously.
I think that it's not that interesting.
I will go on facebook now and read what other people write.

Happy God's Day!

During the winter break, many things have happened.


For all those people that doesn't know about Unification Church, I really need to explain. But there's already a website for it! Check out http://www.familyfed.org/!!!
On Jan. 1, 2010 there was the celebration of 43rd true God's day! I went to the triangle family church in Durham where I did hoon dok hae with all the NC members (except for some people far away like at the beach). It was so fun! The high school workshop people did like skits, the middle school people (including me!) did a magic show, which was very magical. Plus, the youth exchanged presents for secret santa where I got reese's cup chocolates!! Yay for me!!

As I'm writing this blog post, I'm enjoying the view of fresh, breezing nature right outside of the library window. I came here so that my sister can finish reading for project. AND staying for almost 6 hours...

Just a week ago, I went to the middle school workshop and the theme was Highway 596. 596 is true father's prison number. Since the talks was about his early and prison years, and about mind&body unity, and God's heart. My father lecture/preach me a lot, I mostly knew what they were talking about (They=Gene, Benjy, Lerato, David, and Aunt Lucy). But, it reminded me about how I should do think more often about my parents. And how much they sacrificed for me.

When my mom said that I'm not getting any presents this year, she wasn't kidding. I seriously didn't get anything. As much for economic crisis, this family is suffering too. But I don't think so! All I need is love! That makes want to sing the beatles...
